Streamlink 1.0.0

The celebratory release of Streamlink 1.0.0!

A lot of hard work has gone into getting Streamlink to where it is. Not only is Streamlink used across multiple applications and platforms, but companies as well.

Streamlink started from the inaugural fork of Livestreamer on September 17th, 2016.

Since then, We've hit multiple milestones:

Over 886 PRs
Hit 3,000 commits in Streamlink
Obtaining our first sponsors as well as backers of the project
The creation of our own logo (#1123)
Thanks to everyone who has contributed to Streamlink (and our backers)! Without you, we wouldn't be where we are today.

Without further ado, here are the changes in release 1.0.0:

We have a new icon / logo for Streamlink! (#2165)
Updated dependencies (#2230)
A ton of plugin updates. Have a look at this search query for all the recent updates.
You can now provide a custom key URI to override HLS streams (#2139). For example: --hls-segment-key-uri <URI>
User agents for API communication have been updated (#2194)
Special synonyms have been added to sort "best" and "worst" streams (#2127). For example: streamlink --stream-sorting-excludes '>=480p' URL best,best-unfiltered
Process output will no longer show if tty is unavailable (#2090)
We've removed BountySource in favour of our OpenCollective page. If you have any features you'd like to request, please open up an issue with the request and possibly consider backing us!
Improved terminal progress display for wide characters (#2032)
Fixed a bug with dynamic playlists on playback (#2096)
Fixed makeinstaller.sh (#2098)
Old Livestreamer deprecations and API references were removed (#1987)
Dependencies have been updated for Python (#1975)
Newer and more common User-Agents are now used (#1974)

URL have been added for better processing of HTML tags (#1675)
Fixed sort and prog issue (#1964)
Reformatted issue templates (#1966)
Fixed crashing bug with player-continuous-http option (#2234)
Make sure all dev dependencies (#2235)
-r parameter has been replaced for --rtmp-rtmpdump (#2152)
Breaking changes:

A large number of unmaintained or NSFW plugins have been removed. You can find the PR that implemented that change here: #2003 . See our CONTRIBUTING.md documentation for plugin policy.

Streamlink 0.4.0

0.4.0 of Streamlink!

114 commits since the last release and a lot has changed.

In general, we've added some localization as well as an assortment of new plugins.

We've also introduced a change for Streamlink to not check for new updates each time Streamlink starts. We found this feature annoying as well as delaying the initial start of the stream. This feature can be re-enabled by the command line.

The major features of this release are:

New plugins added
Ongoing support to current plugins via bug fixes
Ensure retries to HLS streams
Disable update check

Streamlink 0.3.2
